Clinical trials

This is a phase 1 study of an anti-CD40 monoclonal antibody (2141-V11) in combination with D2C7-IT for patients with recurrent World Health Organization (WHO) grade III or IV malignant glioma at the Preston Robert Tisch Brain Tumor Center (PRTBTC) at Duke.

The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and efficacy of the combination of D2C7-IT+2141-V11 administered in the non-enhancing tumor of patients with resected recurrent glioblastoma (rGBM) via convection enhanced delivery (CED), followed by subcutaneous cervical perilymphatic injections (CPLIs) of 2141-V11 2 and 4 weeks post infusion, then every 3 weeks for a year, and every 4-6 weeks thereafter if patients benefit from therapy.

The purpose of this research study is to determine the safety and efficacy of administering a single intracerebral (within the brain) dose of investigational compounds called D2C7-immunotoxin (IT) and 2141-V11 in residual disease (within tumor margins) after surgery, followed by later repeated injections of 2141-V11 in the subcutaneous area (under the skin) around the lymph nodes of the head and neck for adults newly diagnosed with a type of cancerous brain tumor called glioblastoma. The word "investigational" means the study drugs are still being tested in research studies and are not approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

The purpose of this research study is to determine the safety and efficacy of administering two doses of lerapolturev in residual disease (within tumor margins) after surgery, followed later by repeated injections of lerapolturev in the subcutaneous area (under the skin) around the lymph nodes of the head and neck for adult patients diagnosed with recurrent glioblastoma at the Preston Robert Tisch Brain Tumor Center (PRTBTC) at Duke.
